sounds great, you going to the v8uk big start up next year?

I'm hoping to have my exhaust done by then, might get a cam sorted but it doesnt really need it!
Is this the April one they do? If so then yes.

Did you have a maffless tune m8.
I believe so as I can't see a MAF, is that better then?

I'd say definitely. (But there are those that would differ)

Where are the requisite photos?

I'd imagine it will be as you can't get a big enough MAF for a 102 TB smile

Those of you mentioning the v8uk thing, it'll be on the 12th April next year, at a diff venue.

I'll be sure to let you know asap wink

It will probably be the next dyno day as SRR is the only one that counts, unless I'm down that way beforehand.
The before's have been the same for the last 2 years so the base line is consistent.

That sounds awesome!

May I ask did you get the intake directly from VCM or from somewhere else?

Ok, so if you didn't see the MF FB page I've had fitted ls2 heads CNC ported SLP high lift rockers, fast intake manifold (102)
Fast 102 throttle body MF2 cam and VCM intake.
That's exactly the set-up I've got in boxes waiting to be fitted late January/early February. Sounds good and the rolling road print out looks good too. I went for uprated lifters too just to make sure for the sake of another few hundred quid. If I can get 400bhp at the wheels I'll be more than happy! Nice one mate, hopefully see you at a meet in the spring
